Research project on The Color Purple, by Alice Walker. My thesis statement is In The Color Purple, by Alice Walker, violence against women was not only normalized but expected, and women were seen as sub-human and less than men.
I need four paragraphs, one on how violence against women is normalized, one paragraph on how violence against women is expected (either by women or by society), one paragraph on how women are treated as less than men (showing the rights or privileges that men have that women do not), and one paragraph on how women are treated as subhuman (I was thinking a more philosophical route with this one, defining what makes something human and showing how women are treated less than that).
